My interpretation of such stories (not that you should care) is that they aren’t at all good. I am not saying it didn’t happen, only that I think it has nothing to do with heaven, or a heavenly spirit, or God. Somehow people tell stories like this (true or not) and feel comforted, I would feel no comfort at all from such an event.
I guess it all depends on one’s frame of reference. We were not raised in a church. My parents felt that such beliefs are best decided on in adulthood. They both had unhappy memories of being dragged to the Methodist church. So we basically believe in God & an afterlife, but are ‘open’ to what else is there. So this experience does tend to validate at least part of our beliefs.
My mother had her own peculiar experience as a young woman. For a series of weeks (like ten?) she would have a dream of a horrible death - like a child suffocated in a refrigerator. Then some days after there would be a story in the newspaper with identical circumstances she’d dreamed. No clue as to why the dreams started or stopped. No comfort in that sort of thing at all!
